A pause to the outside roofing on a rainy day but I had a break with Di and the family and then Diana took the girls to The Horning Leisure Centre in the morning and then off to a Norwich cinema in the afternoon and then I took her out for a meal at The Broads Hotel carvery in Wroxham and had roast beef.

Work proceeded with the downstairs ceilings and bathroom wall linings under the dry of the felt and battens and Eastern Electricity came today and installed the supply to the meter box in. Our kitchen is ready at MFI and the stairs will be ready on Monday or Tuesday. Tomorrow is forecast brighter.

Slept well and then woke on time and was just finishing my breakfast and wash when Diana woke up early and joined me. I took her a coffee and then joined her in bed for the first time in a while as I had been too tired, busy and pre-occupied for lovemaking until then. It started fine this morning, but the sky got steadily darker and then the torrential and persistent rain lasted the rest of the day until evening. Diana took the girls to The Horning Leisure Centre in the morning and then off to a Norwich cinema in the afternoon and then I took her out for a meal at The Broads Hotel carvery in Wroxham and had roast beef. The roofers were a bit stuck with the weather and hung around in the boatshed for most of the day, forming lead flashing.

At least the building was dry under the roofing felt. The builders put up the downstairs ceilings and then the wall linings for the bathroom whilst I helped put in the fibreglass insulation and staple on a polythene membrane. I also had some puzzling to do over the electrical wires that were loose and awaiting the walls to be formed but we got there in the end. Eastern Electricity came today and installed the supply from our 'hole in the ground' to the meter box in Harnser and so we are making progress. Our kitchen is ready at MFI and the stairs will be ready on Monday or Tuesday. Tomorrow is forecast brighter.
